Our Mission

CGS Lutheran Church proclaims God's word and love; welcomes all; serves one another and the world. 

Our Vision

CGS serves the world with gratitude, reflecting the unconditional love of God. 

What does this mean? 

To proclaim means: 
  • We are called to be disciples of Jesus Christ 
  • God's love for eveyrone is unconditional
  • We are saved by grace alone (not by our own works) 
  • We celebrate communion with all people because we are reconciled in Christ
  • God's word is relevant for our world

To welcome means: 
  • We invite all who seek a relationship with God through a faith community
  • We stand with those who have been unwelcomed
  • We embrace diversity and value persons of all origins and backgrounds
  • We are an open minded community growing in respectful dialogue
  • We are attentive to the needs of others

To serve means: 
  • We are committed to creating justice by following the example of Jesus Christ
  • We serve "the least of these" 
  • We empower members of our church to be active disciples of Jesus Christ
  • We create safe spaces
  • We encourage each other in life-long spiritual growth
